Nicolas Kummert - Résonances

For Nicolas, music is above all a form of resonance, of ‘résonance’, with the other artists on stage and with the audience. It makes it possible to share emotions in a very direct way, while allowing the other person to engage their own emotions. With this international group that brings together a Belgian, a French, a Beninese and a Malagasi, he especial- ly seeks this resonance, this boundless sharing.... The addition of electronics adds an extra level of expressiveness and opens the door to mysterious atmospheres by harmoniously merging with the band’s acoustic sounds.

KAU trio

Taking inspiration from jazz, they create a head-bobbing atmosphere using broken beats and heavy grooves while leaving space for improvisation.
